Frequently Asked Questions

When does a septic project require excavation equipment?
Any project involving a new septic system installation, drain field replacement, or tank relocation will require excavation. Rocky or compacted soils common in El Paso County often make manual digging impractical, and having a contractor with the right machinery gets the job done correctly and efficiently.
Can Baird's handle both the excavation and the septic system work together?
Yes, that's one of their key advantages. Coordinating excavation and septic work through one contractor eliminates scheduling gaps and communication problems that come with using separate companies for each part of the job.
What happens to an old septic tank when a new system is installed?
Old tanks can be pumped out and crushed in place, or fully removed depending on local regulations and site conditions. El Paso County typically requires abandoned tanks to be properly decommissioned to prevent collapse or groundwater contamination.
How long does it take to install a new septic system in Colorado Springs?
A straightforward installation on a prepared site can take a few days, but permitting, soil testing, and site conditions can extend the timeline. Rocky soils or complex lot configurations common in parts of El Paso County may require additional planning and excavation time.
Do I need permits for septic excavation work in El Paso County?
Yes, El Paso County requires permits for new septic system installations and major repairs, including significant excavation work. An experienced contractor like Baird's can guide you through the permit process and make sure the work meets county requirements.
Can a drain field be repaired without replacing the entire septic system?
In many cases, yes. If the tank itself is in good condition and the drain field failure is localized, targeted excavation and drain field repair can restore system function without a full replacement. A site assessment will determine which approach makes the most sense for your system.
